Full Episode
So I have written, count them, five books now. But each time I'm in the writing process, I stay at an Airbnb. I love to stay at an Airbnb. When I was actually first launching this show, I was at an Airbnb in Arizona. It was so peaceful. It was stunning. I could be productive and comfortable. The Airbnb was also surrounded by a ton of javelinas.
If you know Arizona, you know they're like wild pig creatures. But honestly, I love them too. Being away for work, for fun, or both is a perfect opportunity to host your space on Airbnb. And if you think that hosting is overwhelming, I have a solve for you. With Airbnb's co-host network, it's easier than ever before to host. It's also a great way to earn some extra cash, which I know we all love.
Now you can hire a quality local co-host to take care of your home and your guests. They can do everything from creating your listing to managing reservations to messaging guests and even providing on-site support. So if you've got a secondary property or an extended trip coming up and you need a little help hosting while you're away, you can hire a co-host to do the work for you.
Find a co-host at Airbnb.com slash host. I'm Nicole Lappin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand. It's time for some money rehab. You have more than one financial goal. How do I know that? Because we all do. The trick is, how do you work toward multiple goals at once? The answer isn't some money move that your future self will need to make.
The answer lies within the money moves you're making right now. And I'll show you how to make one of those money moves with the help of Bank of America, whom I partnered with for this episode. First, you'll meet someone who's debating this question right now, a money rehabber named Sarah. She already has some real estate investments, but she's thinking about buying another house in a few years.
Plus, her husband wants to retire early. So how does she balance these two goals? The answer is not waiting around until she's ready to buy a house or until the eve of her husband's wannabe retirement date. She has to put in the work now. She needs to know how much she can save for these future goals and then start saving.
So in this conversation, we do a deep dive into her finances so we can figure out that number together. But like most things in finance, these long-term goals are deeply tied to emotion. So in this conversation too, you'll hear about how watching her family go through the 2008 crisis has affected Sarah's thinking and how she takes a step toward overcoming that trauma in this very conversation.
Whatever goals you're working toward, long-term or short-term, Bank of America Corporation has the tools to help get you there at bfa.com slash financial next steps. But for now, let's get into it with Sarah. Sarah, welcome to Money Rehab.
Hi, thanks for having me. I'm so excited to be here.
